The Hybrid Bourbon Rose.
Tippoo Saib is a new variety of great beauty; it flowers are finely cupped, resembling in this respect those of a new rose in this group, called ​​​​​​​Claude Lorraine is a rose-coloured variety of much excellence.

The Noisette Rose.
We have recently had a few additions to this class [of Noisettes]; and two are worthy of especial notice; these have been raised at Angers, from Noisette Lamarque, and no roses have perhaps so well rewarded with their beauty the care of a cultivator: the first in merit is Noisette Cloth of Gold, called in France Chromatella. One would suppose, to see this rose in bud, that it could not be a yellow rose, as the extreme outer petals are nearly of a cream colour, but when expanded it is one of the most brilliant and beautiful of yellow roses, with petals thick and waxy, bearing exposure to the hottest sun without fading. In habit it is very robust, bearing in this respect much resemblance to Jaune Desprez; its leaves are large, shining, and the whole plant, when in luxuriant growth, most beautiful. While rare, as at present, it would not be prudent to expose it during the winter in the open border; a south wall will probably be the best situation for it, as it seems to delight in heat; but when more abundant it may doubtless be planted out as a pillar rose, for which it is admirably adapted, as it makes shoots four to six feet in length in one season: cultivated in this manner it will doubtless require protection.

Comte de Paris is also a magnificent variety, with finely-cupped flowers of pale rose colour. This variety opens freely in any situation, and is very hardy and robust.

Hybrid Chinas...Comtesse de Lacepede and Adalila ought not to be passed over; they are of the most perfect shape and delicate pale blush...

The Moss Rose. (Rosa centifolia muscosa.)
In Comtesse de Murinais we have a new and most vigorous growing white moss rose, a most remarkable variety, evidently resulting from a cross with the Damask Rose, of which it largely partakes in its foliage and general habit; this is so robust that last season my young plants made shoots more than six feet in length, of the thickness of a stout riding cane. Its flower buds are well mossed, but its flowers are not very double; they are large, very slightly tinged with blush when they first open, and soon change to pure white. I attach much value to this rose, for I anticipate that, by crossing it with the Perpetual White Moss, seed may be easily obtained, which will, I trust, in the course of time, give us some autumnal blooming white moss roses.

Among the Bourbon roses of moderate growth...we have a few pale roses of much beauty; they differ but little, and yet they are different: the eye can distinguish, but the pen cannot describe. Of these Anne Beluze, Le Camée, Reine du Congrés, and Comtesse de Resseguier, have all been raised by M. Beluze of Lyons, and I presume from the same stock, - viz. Madame Nérard: like that very fine and well-known rose, they are all of the most delicate pinky blush, and all bear their flowers on erect flower-stems.

The Crested Provence, Crested Moss, or Rosa cristata, for it is known by these three names, is said to have been discovered growing from the crevice of a wall at Friburg in Switzerland. No rose can be more singular and beautiful: the buds before expansion are so clasped by its fringed sepals, that they present a most unique and elegant appearance totally unlike any other rose.

When the flower is fully expanded this peculiar beauty vanishes, and it has merely the appearance of a superior variety of the Provence Rose. It should here be mentioned that, if grown in a poor soil, its buds often lose their crest, and come plain like those of the latter. As a standard, this rose is very graceful, its large flowers and buds drooping from their weight.

D'Aguesseau is also a superb rose; its colour, much more striking than that of the above [Boula de Nanteuil], is of a brilliant crimson, form very regular, petals abundant, and not too much crowded.

THE PERPETUAL DAMASK ROSE.
De Rennes is a true perpetual, of first-rate excellence, with large and very double flowers.

THE PERPETUAL DAMASK ROSE.
Délice d'Hiver is a splendid rose, with large and finely-shaped flowers, of that vivid rose-colour so much admired; also a true perpetual.
